Over 10 years ago,I met a very sweet Irish lady in the grocery store,I was getting fresh dates from the self serve bin and she was waiting to get dates as well.We struck up a conversation and I mentioned I was making sticky toffee pudding for the 1st time,she asked if I hd a good recipe & when I told her I found one in a cookbook she said oh no,I have a recipe for you.She quickly wrote out a recipe. My family loved it and I've made it many times.It's great warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
